Essential Word On The Street
$17.99
Rob Lacey’s”dangerously real” retelling of Scripture vividly demonstrates that the Bible is packed full of stories/poems/images that resonate with the big issues of today. This fresh paraphrase with running commentary brings the text alive: Bible stories are retold as mini-blockbusters; psalms as song lyrics; epistles as email; Revelation as virtual reality. Out with the stale religious terms, this is a “Bible”that talks today’s language–gritty, earthy, witty. Enough of starting at Genesis with good intentions but getting lost in Leviticus. Lacey succeeds in revitalizing a classic work by focusing on the big picture: fast-forwarding through the”slow-moving”bits with pace, passion and energy to make the Bible a page-turner. What’s more,Lacey’saward-winning tour de force was created during a remarkable personal journey through terminal cancer: the stuff Bible stories are make of. This life-experience injectsLacey’stake on Scripture with authenticity and authority-resonating with Bible characters who also wrestled with the big questions. This is not the Bible (with a capital B), but it might just get you reaching for one!
